MORNING SPEAKER:
Meet Todd Matthews
Todd's calling to be a voice for missing and unidentified
persons began when he solved the identity of the "Tent
Girl" case, Barbara Hackman-Taylor, after a ten-year
journey that ended in 1998. He is also Media Director for
the Doe Network, a consultant on a pending series for Emmy-award
winning producer Dick Wolf ("Law & Order"),
and on the Advisory Panel for the U. S. Department of Justice
NamUs.gov (National Missing and Unidentified Persons System)
database project.
Todd has appeared on many national television shows, including
"Leeza," America's Most Wanted, 48 Hours, "TechTV,"
"Good Morning America," and the Paula Zahn Show.
Articles about him and his advocacy work have appeared in
hundreds of newspapers and periodicals, including The New
York Times, The Washington Post, Chicago Tribune, USA Today,
and People Magazine. He hosts a weekly radio show that publicizes
unidentified and missing persons cases.
A documentary broadcast featuring Todd was recently broadcast
on the BBC. A second documentary about his life is in production
(www.ResurrectionTheMovieSite.com).
THE AFTERNOON -- The afternoon program will
begin at 1:00 pm with the presentation of the annual “HOPE”
